This free e-book offers tips for healthy stabling as the indoor-living season approaches.
Mother Nature didn’t design horses as indoor creates. They were meant to roam freely, breathe fresh air and graze most of the day. As herd animals, horses have physical, physiological and emotional needs that are naturally met living freely outdoors.
To care for and enjoy our horses, however, most of us need to keep them close by. And that typically means indoor stabling for at least some of the day,
Indoor living is not our horse's natural habitat. Confinement can affect everything from respiratory and digestive heath to joint function and overall well-being.
The good news is that modern equine science provides many ways for our horses to live as naturally as possible in a stabled environment.
Haygain’s new e-book, Optimising the Stable Environment, is loaded with tips on keeping our horses happy and healthy while living indoors. The information is especially timely with winter on the way, giving owners a jump on prepping their stable for healthy horses through the season.
Feeding and flooring methods, ventilation considerations, stabling configurations and ways to address our horses' emotional well-being are a few of the many areas covered in this helpful resource.
Whether you're set on improving your existing yard or designing your dream stable, Optimising the Stable Environment offers the latest horse management science to support your goals of providing the very best for your horse.
